Professional AC Sleeve Installation & Replacement in New York City
Weather Makers NYC is a licensed HVAC contractor specializing in AC sleeve installation and replacement across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. The wall sleeve is the most overlooked and most critical component of any PTAC or thru the wall AC installation.A correctly installed, properly sealed, and accurately sized sleeve is what separates a system that performs perfectly for 15 years from one that leaks water into the wall, loses heat all winter, rattles continuously, and fails prematurely.NYC buildings present unique challenges including pre war brick walls, concrete block structures, and modern drywall systems that each require different installation techniques.Our technicians have installed and replaced over 3000 sleeves using correctly gauged steel, structural framing, weatherproof sealing, and insulated liners that meet NYC building code.We also fabricate custom dimension sleeves for older NYC buildings where standard sizes do not fit.
Rusted or Corroded Sleeve
Steel sleeves corrode from moisture exposure. We replace the sleeve, repair the wall cavity, and reseal completely.
Water Leaking Through the Wall
Water infiltration causes mold and damage. We replace and reseal with full documentation for building management.
New Wall Opening Cutting
We cut precise openings in brick, concrete, or drywall and install a properly framed and sealed sleeve.
Wrong Size Sleeve for New Unit
We measure, fabricate, and install the correct sleeve to ensure proper fit and performance.

What Happens When a Sleeve Is Installed Incorrectly
Many repeated AC problems such as water leaks, drafts, noise, and poor performance are caused by incorrect sleeve installation rather than the AC unit itself.
Water infiltration occurs when the sleeve is not installed with proper outward tilt. Water flows inside instead of outside and causes damage to walls and floors.
Energy loss happens when gaps or missing insulation allow outside air into the apartment which increases heating and cooling costs.
Noise and vibration occur when the sleeve does not fit tightly. Even small gaps cause constant rattling during operation.
Mold develops when moisture enters the wall cavity and remains trapped. This problem will continue until the sleeve is correctly sealed.
Structural damage can occur over time when water enters the wall and weakens surrounding materials leading to expensive repairs.
